If C is the temperature in degrees Celsius and F is the temperature
in degrees Fahrenheit, then 9C = 5(F-32). If the temperature is
60° Celsius, what is the corresponding temperature in degrees
Fahrenheit?

Sagot :

The corresponding value of  [tex]60^\circ C[/tex] in Fahrenheit is  [tex]15.6^\circ F[/tex]

How to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit

To convert between Celsius and Fahrenheit units of measuring temperature, we use the relationship

[tex]9C=5(F-32)[/tex]

where

[tex]C=\text{the temperature measured in Celsius}\\F=\text{the same temperature measured in Fahrenheit}[/tex]

From the question, we need to convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit, so we make C the subject of the formula, then substitute.

[tex]9C=5(F-32)\\\\\dfrac{9C}{9}=\dfrac{5(F-32)}{9}\\\\C=\dfrac{5}{9}(F-32)[/tex]

Substituting [tex]C=60[/tex] into the formula, we get

[tex]C=\dfrac{5}{9}(F-32)\\\\C=\dfrac{5}{9}(60-32)\\\\=\dfrac{5}{9}\times 28 \approx 15.6^\circ F[/tex]
